PG&E’s Gas Operations and Gas Engineering organizations are focused on ensuring the safe and reliable flow of natural gas to our customers. The Organizations are responsible for all aspects of PG&E’s gas distribution and transmission operations, including planning, engineering, maintenance and construction, restoration, and emergency response.

• Gas Operations oversees the natural gas transmission and distribution operations. The team maintains and operates approximately 6,438 miles of gas transmission pipelines, approximately 42,141 miles of distribution main, 4.5 million natural gas customer accounts, three PG&E-owned storage facilities with 102 BCF capacity, nine compressor stations with 175K HP, and 5,000 measurement and control facilities.

• Gas Engineering aids in the operations, maintenance, construction, and planning for $21 billion in gas assets that transport, store, compress, regulate, measure, and deliver gas approximately 4.5 million customers.

The Gas Operations and Gas Engineering Rotational Development Program is an 18-month rotation program that provides engineers an opportunity to gain meaningful engineering experience in up to three departments within Gas Operations or Gas Engineering focused on improving PG&E’s large network of gas transmission and distribution pipelines.

Engineers will have the option to apply for associate level engineering positions after the second rotation or move into a third rotation to gain additional experience while applying to associate level engineering jobs.

PG&E is providing the hourly rate range that the company in good faith believes it might pay for this position at the time of the job posting.
